TEWKESBURY - wedding notice - Sept 1870
« on: Wednesday 12 April 23 03:02 BST (UK) »
I've found this reference to a 'marriage notice' at Family Search. I'd like to know Adam's father's name - any ideas where this 'notice' might be - I can't see anything in British Newspaper Archive.
Thanks.

Wedding notice is dated 25 Sept 1870 at Tewkesbury

The father on his marriage cert is John a gardener, witness is Job who is probably his brother.  It is not hard to find them in census records at Bredon.

The 'marriage notice' is a reference to the banns which were called on September 11, 18 and 25.  It is on page 329 of the register.

Thanks - can you tell me where you saw the image of the marriage record so I can download in future.

The marriage and banns are on Ancestry.

Adam is 30, a bachelor and labourer of Hughes' Alley, father John WILLIAMS a gardener

Caroline is 27, a spinster and shoe fitter of Crooked Alley, father John FREEMAN, also a gardener

Witnesses Job WILLIAMS and Sarah WILLIAMS.

Caroline signed, the others all made their mark.

Sorry, I should have said, it was 2 October 1870 at the parish church of Tewkesbury.
